      • OBJECT

        public static final StorageType OBJECT
        Objects are stored on heap as objects as provided. These are serialized across to other nodes and stored as deserialized instances of the object. Equality is defined by the equals method of the implementation class.
      • BINARY

        public static final StorageType BINARY
        Entries are stored in Java heap but as byte[] instances. This mode has equality defined by the byte[] created from the serialized from of the provided object.
      • OFF_HEAP

        public static final StorageType OFF_HEAP
        Entries are stored in internal memory off the normal Java heap. This mode has equality defined by the byte[] created from the serialized form of the provided object.

      • values

        public static StorageType[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
        for (StorageType c : StorageType.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static StorageType valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
